Green doesn't return. That is a lock. He has been with 11 teams since 2002. He puts out just enough effort to stick around for about a year then lapses into his poor habits. the team gets tired of it and releases him. I don't think it was an accident that 2011 was one of his worse years performance wise especially when you factor in that he was on the field for all 16 games for the only time in his career. He preseason/lockout workout consisted of mowing his yard. Even if he has 40 acres of yard he should have been in the gym doing some kind of weight training as well. He just doesn't seem to have the heart to make the consistent effort needed to play in the NFL.

That said, the players currently on the roster have me excited. I haven't seen this much depth and potential at the position in a while.
Two starters in Raji, Picket
Two potential starters or at worst solid rotational players in Worthy, Hargrove
A few guys who are solid depth players, guys you would be happy to have as the #5-7 DL but not starting like Muir, Wynn and Wilson
And a handful of unknown players, one or two of which could turn out to be a gem.
My depth chart as of today would probably look like:
1. Raji
2. Picket
3. Worthy
4. Hargove
5. Daniels
6. Best of Wynn/Wilson/Muir
7. A wildcard like Guy or one of the UDFAs(if they keep 7)
I'm hope they have enough talent on the Dline this year to cut Neal outright, too many injuries and now the steroids thing or whatever it was, cut him loose and give the roster spot to someone who's going to show up and play.
